Brand preferences

[KrisBKream]

If you could only order one brand of flavorings, which would you choose? Why?

Don't worry, I know there will be many opinions on this. I just thought this would be a fun way to gather info on flavoring brands

Capella's because I'm a bakery/dessert vaper and IMO, Capella's flavors are consistantly great at 15-20%.

Perfumers Apprentice - Professional DIY Flavors Linda is the Goddess of Flavors...Her customer service and prices are amazing...

Perfumers Apprentice - Professional DIY Flavors would be the one that I would pick because I like more of their flavors the best

Double Ditto for TPA Flavors and Linda.

Most of my flavors are from The Flavor Apprentice. I like all the flavors I've purchased from them.

I also like TPA but have found that I need to mix small amounts and use them soon. The flavors are great after just a few days steeping but after a couple weeks they seem to weaken drastically. The peach and plum for instance were great for a while and now they are a good kinda tobacco/nuetral vape with only a hint of flavor. I've noticed this on quite a few of their flavors, anyone else notice this? For the most part I use FA flavors. Their tobacco flavors are all nice.

I didn't care for FA tobacco's. Tasted weird and fake to me..Tried at all sorts of %'s also..No luck.. Linda has all kinds of tobaccos that you can be creative with. I make my tobacco base from 3 of her tobaccos that is killer.. I steep for weeks/months ans never loses flavor...Although FA's vape and bitter wizard is a must for tobacco flavors..

Do you mind sharing what flavors and percents you use, I mostly vape tobacco flavors and am always looking for a great one. Been DIY since April.

Sure thing Brother, All Linda's stuff..Tobacco Absolute 1%, Tobacco Flavor 1%, Type M 1.5%, That is your base...Then you can add flavors like rum, whiskey, apple, etc..5-10%. Bitter wizard 1-1.5%. Vape Wizard 1%....Good luck and enjoy..

Wow what a concensus! That can't be spelled right...

Finally kinda made my first diy yesterday. Still waiting on my next paycheck to get nic juice and make online flavoring orders, but I had PG, VG, and some LorAnns raspberry from local stores, so I made 3ml of 60/40 0mg raspberry lol. Tasty though!

I had this happen with my blueberry danish recipe...the blueberry gets lost if too far into the steeping process.

capellas.. I usually mix just chocolate and vanilla and their vanilla cupcake and chocolates are great!

 

[Hoosier]

While I'm vaping mixes with nothing but FA recipes right now, TPA is my largest stock as I have had the majority of "hit" recipes with Linda's flavors.

But I really like the 4 major players in this game; TPA/TFA, FA, Capella, and Lorann's in that order. There are a few oddball flavorings that I also use, but they are tiny compared to the first 4 in my stash.

 

[caged]

The perfumers apprentice doesn't have a real banana flavor?

 

[NanoVapor]

Capella. I base this off ratio of flavors I find vapable per manufacturer, Capella has like 90% good flavors, PA is like 15%, FA is like 25%, LorAnn is like 15%, generic Chinese flavorings are like 25%, oddball essential oils are like 1%

Best odds of success lie with Capella, if you had to pick just 1, but why on earth would you do that.

Thanks for sharing that info, I will get these flavors on my next order and give them a shot. I've had a blast since I got into DIY. I have over 50 6 ml bottles mixed up on my "lab" desk, most are pretty good (some not) just mixing various flavors to see what I come up with.

I'm gonna go with natures flavors, they are 100% organic, no artificial colors, or additives.
